Patent EP-1122105-A2 (EP)
Inventor: MANARA GIAMPAOLO
IPC: B60H3/06
Filed: 2001-01-30
Abstract: The system in question can be considered like a system for
"washing" the ventilation air in the passenger compartment of motor
vehicles or the like and the air contained in interiors and permits abatement
of particles of dust, heavy metals, smoke, pollen and mites while a flow of
air passes through an aqueous solution both in a basin and atomized, which
functions as a natural and totally ecological filter and guarantees efficient
abatement of all impurities. 
     The system basically exploits a purification basin or tank (2) made of
shockproof material and hermetically sealed and containing a certain
amount of water or other basically aqueous liquid (3) that creates an upper
hollow space of purified air. 
     Pump (8) is installed at the inlet duct (4) with suitable power for
generating a flow of air that is delivered into the liquid by using an atomizer
(9) placed in the lower internal part of tank (2). 
     The system also calls for purifying the air in interiors by using a
principle whereby the air is passed through a certain amount of atomized
aqueous liquid to abate practically all the impurities, simulating the action of
rain that washes the air and purifies it.

Abstract: The output power of a signal generated by a mobile communications device is
measured over a short period of time (e.g. one signal burst), and the data modulation carried
by the signal is also determined. The measured power value is adjusted to compensate for
variations due to the content of the data modulation. This enables the long-term average
power output by the device to be determined more quickly than by averaging the power
measured over many successive signal bursts.

Abstract: Data cells traversing an Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) network (10) are
passively monitored by probes at two spaced points (12,14). A filtering characteristic is
applied to select cells comparatively infrequently, and timestamps or sequence numbers (or
both) for the cells selected at each point are forwarded to a comparator (28). The comparator
identifies similarities in the temporal patterns of intervals between timestamps received from
each probe, and uses these similarities to identify and correlate timestamps relating to
occurrence of the same cell at the two monitored points. The correlated timestamps are used
to determine parameters indicative of the performance of the network, such as one-way delay,
variation in that delay, and rate of cell loss.

Abstract: Plan de mise en place qui est élaboré pour la mise en place d'implants radioactifs dans une prostate en vue de la curiethérapie. Le plan de mise en place est fourni à une interface de suivi peropératoire qui montre également une image ultrasonore en direct de la mise en place de l'aiguille ou du cathéter dans la prostate. La différence dans le plan x-y entre les emplacements prévus et effectifs de l'aiguille ou du cathéter est calculée, et l'erreur de position de chaque implant est calculée sur la base de cette différence. Les implants sont déplacés, ou alors l'opérateur modifie le nombre d'implants, et la dose est recalculée. Une petite colonne d'images ultrasonores est prise, et un niveau de confiance est attribué à chaque implant situé dans la colonne d'images. Si le niveau de confiance dépasse un seuil fixé par l'opérateur, la dosimétrie est à nouveau effectuée. Des images aux rayons fluoroscopiques sont prises périodiquement pendant toute la durée de mise en place des implants et les coordonnées des implants sont mises en correspondance avec la radiographie. Les emplacements d'implants à faible niveau de confiance sont ajustés sur la base des emplacements apparaissant sur les radiographies, et la dosimétrie est à nouveau effectuée.

Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un système servant à protéger un élément contre les décharges électrostatiques. A cet effet, on prévoit un commutateur pour empêcher le passage d'énergie à travers l'élément en réponse au signal de commande. Dans le mode de réalisation illustré, le commutateur est un commutateur à transistor. Une résistance est disposée entre une borne d'entrée du transistor et la source positive, pour maintenir le transistor sous tension en période de fonctionnement normal. Une capacitance est disposée entre la borne d'entrée du transistor et la terre, pour empêcher la tension d'entrée du transistor de changer rapidement. La constante de temps RC est choisie supérieure à la constante de temps de l'impulsion de décharge électrostatique. Par conséquent, la tension d'entrée du transistor va rester inchangée à proximité de ØV et le transistor va rester hors tension pendant l'événement de décharge électrostatique, empêchant ainsi l'élément de conduire le courant de décharge et assurant ainsi une protection contre les décharges électrostatiques.
